The first problem to address is cross-domain. You seem to be asking to parse KML from someone else's domain, is that right?
The API provides a method GGeoXml which can do that (because it gets Google's servers to do it for you), but its quite restrictive about how much you can customize the results. There are third-party clientside KML parsers, GeoXml and EgeoXml, that allow you as much scope to tailor as writing your own. But they won't work directly with other-domain source - that's a browser restriction, not a maps one. You can circumvent that by putting a proxy service on your own server. KML is only XML ina given layout. You can enhance your existing XML parser to read KML instead. You only need to read the parts you want, not implement a full KML parser. You'd still need that proxy for cross-domain work. cheers, Ross K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
